Hi XVII,

thanks for the post - I'm not sure what audio outputs your PC has but if it has standard analogue audio outputs then I'd highly recommend the Cambridge Audio AM1 - it doesn't have tons of features but it actually sounds great and its real ly reasonably priced:

If your amp has USB or digital outputs I'm not sure if you will get anything decent under the €100 mark but keep us posted on the output spec of your PC and we will revert asap,

ATVB,

Hey John,

Thanks for the reply.

I've checked the back of my PC, and it has sockets 3-8 like on the picture below (no 1 or 2):

Will I be able to connect Cambridge amp to that?

Hi VXII

Output 7 on that picture says it should be an audio out.
Looks like a 3.5mm jack socket. So this cable should work for you:

Cambridge 100 3.5mm to 2 phono priced at £9.99 / 13.99 Euro

This would then connect into the rear inputs of the Cambridge amp.

Perfect, will order this soon.
Do I need any other cables (amp to speakers?) or they will be included?

Hey XVII.

You would also require some speaker cable if you do not already have some.

The Cambridge Symphony 100 would do for this setup.
Priced at 1.29 Euro per meter
